Presumably because the checksum is wrong.
If by turning off 'sync' it is meant that the zil is disabled, then
that has nothing to do with zfs checksums being wrong. If drive cache
flush is disabled for async transaction groups, then nothing but
problems can result (e.g. failure to import the pool at all).
